Our Members currently manage their waste in a variety of different ways. Contracts are either awarded through the current LUPC Waste Management (Sustainable) framework, other frameworks, or via Members’ own tender processes. Members may use a main contractor under a total waste management approach, or different contractors for separate waste streams, and some may use local councils for domestic waste from halls of residences.

The proposed new agreement is likely to be divided into lots. The structure of the lots have not yet been decided and will be based on this market consultation and input from our members. Details of the finalised lot structure will be set out in the Contract Notice.

If you are interested in providing feedback as part of this market exercise, please complete the supplier questionnaire. A link to the questionnaire is contained within the "information to suppliers" document which can be obtained via our portal, Mercell UK
